TONEX in ToneNET

But what's a Tone Model?

A Tone Model is the capture of a real guitar or bass rig with all its nuances and non-linearities. It aims to provide the same sound characteristics inside a computer so you no longer need the real rig itself for performing and recording. You can collect thousands of amplifiers, stomps and cabs inside TONEX, which will become a digital locker for all your gear.

A Tone Model can have various types:

• Stomp(s)
• Stomp(s) + amp
  • Stomp(s) + amp + cab
• Amp
• Amp + cab

A stomp(s) is any combination of guitar pedals: boost, overdrive, fuzz, distortion, EQ, preamplifier, etc...

N.B.

The stomp can't be a time-based or phase-based pedal such as: compressor, reverb, delay, chorus, phaser, flanger, etc...

Also some vintage fuzzes and overdrives that have parallel paths inside can't be modeled.

What if I have no amplifier to capture?

Don't worry, even if you don't have any amplifier to capture, you can play all the Tone Models available in TONEX Pedal, TONEX ONE and TONEX for Mac/PC plus any Tone Model made by other users available on our free platform ToneNET (tone.net).

Presets

These Tone Models are used inside TONEX presets.

TONEX presets consist of the following effects for tweaking any Tone Model:

• Noise gate
• Compressor
• Tone Model
• Tone EQ
• Reverb

A preset is the perfect foundation for any guitar tone.

Inside a preset, a Tone Model is divided in 2 parts: amp and cab.

Doing so lets us swap any amp/cab module with another Tone Model's amp/cab module to create new combinations of rigs.

If a stomp is paired with an amp creating a “stomp + amp” or a “stomp + amp + cab” Tone Model, the stomp part is tied to the amp and when swapping the amp part, the stomp follows as well.

Connections

TONEX ONE into a power amplifier with your own cabinet

If you want to use TONEX ONE with your own cabinet, you can plug it directly to a power amplifier.

This is perfect if you want to have the flexibility and tone quality of TONEX using your own cabinet on stage. Remember to bypass the cab section to avoid unwanted double cab filtering.

PRO TIP: You can bypass the preamp section of your guitar or bass amplifier by plugging TONEX ONE into the return input of the amp's FX Loop.

    B --> G["COMP"]
    B --> H["SVERSE"]

TONEX ONE for recording

You can also use TONEX ONE as an audio interface to record your guitar parts by connecting it to your computer via USB. You can monitor with zero latency through the pedal using headphones or by connecting active monitors to the stereo output of TONEX ONE using a Y cable.

This is an example of using the TONEX ONE for recording:

    E --> F["Speaker with Ratio Switch"]
    F --> G["Speaker with Ratio Switch"]
    G --> H["Speaker with Ratio Switch"]
    H --> I["Guitar"]

Disable direct monitoring from the TONEX Librarian if you monitor through your DAW to avoid double monitoring effect while recording.

If you are using TONEX ONE to feed TONEX software or another amp simulator software, remember to bypass TONEX ONE internal processing by going to stomp mode and set the pedal to bypass to send only the DI signal to the amp simulator.

TONEX ONE as a stomp in front of a real amp

You can use TONEX ONE as your overdrive/distortion/fuzz pedal before your amplifier by connecting it in mono...

Auto save

TONEX ONE automatically saves any changes applied to the current preset in real time. This “analog-like” behavior avoids any edit loss for a faster and smoother experience without the need to manually save changes.

Clip

If you are running a signal that is too hot and is clipping TONEX ONE's output stage, the display ALT ALT led becomes red.

Lower TONEX ONE volume to avoid clipping.

ALT colors

• Green – indicates that the pedal is running in dual mode, the footswitch toggles between preset A and preset B.
• Amber – indicates that the pedal is running in stomp mode, the footswitch activates or bypasses the selected preset.
• Blue – indicates that the pedal is in setup mode.
• Shell pink – indicates that the pedal is in tuning mode.
• Purple – indicates that the pedal is in preset browsing mode.

Safe mode

The safe mode is helpful when performing where you may want to lock the entire front panel to avoid unwanted parameter changes, but still use the footswitch to operate with presets.

Access and exit the safe mode by holding down the ALT button for 3 seconds until the micro knobs blink.

Tuner

Hold the footwitch to access the tuner, the ALT led turns shell pink.

While the tuner is active use the ALT button to change tuning mode between:

• Mute – while the tuner is active the output is muted.
• Thru – while the tuner is active the signal passes through.

Press the footswitch to exit the tuner.

Performance modes

TONEX ONE can operate in 2 different modes:

- Dual mode – lets you toggle between 2 presets using the footswitch.

In this mode there is not a bypass option.

When the pedal is in dual mode, the ALT led is green.

- Stomp mode – The stomp mode lets you use the pedal as a typical on/off stomp to activate or bypass the selected preset.

When the pedal is in stomp mode the ALT led is amber.

Mode selector

To change the performance mode, access the global setup and turn the bass micro knob (mode selector).

To learn more, reference the "Setup" chapter.

Preset browsing mode

TONEX ONE comes with 20 built-in customizable presets assignable to 3 active slots (2 for the dual mode, 1 for the stomp mode).

Browsing mode

To browse the 20 presets and assign them to the 3 active slots, press the ALT button and the footswitch together to access the browsing mode. The ALT led turns purple.

Once accessed the browsing mode, the 3 micro knobs refer to the 3 active slots:

• BASS – dual mode, preset A.
• MID – dual mode, preset B.
- TREBLE – stomp mode.

Use the footswitch to select which active slot you want to edit, then turn the corresponding micro knob to select its preset assignment (the micro knob changes colors following the selected preset color).

While browsing you can use the main knob to edit the preset volume and, by pressing the ALT button, the gain of the selected preset.

Once the assignments are done, press the ALT button and the footswitch together to confirm and go back to the selected preset.
